yea IPO started downward spiral, than they start massively purging in anticipation of trumps presidency, and then Musk start attacking subs criticizing him, which spez obliged by banning subs, or purging large amounts of accounts.
also harder to accuse them of using AI as well, since we know reddit loves all the AI on it , so they can train thier llms(googles and openai) and to prevent people from reporting propaganda accounts too often.
RIP reddit. We knew this day would come. At least Spez will have plenty of bot accounts to keep him company.
To me, it died when they allowed users to hide their post and comment history. Enables bots and bad faith behavior.
It died many deaths. But the decision to IPO was the start of this enshitified slide.

they aspire to be facebook 2.0, which is mostly bots now, besides the propaganda.
